save for punctuation, this was a really good story :) it's a good read, it sets the scene early, and I can actually see what's going on in my head. that's the mark of a great writer. what I mean by punctuation though is: The wind blew violently(,) shaking the house and swept the rain in a horizontal pattern across the ground.

a few commas here and there would make this into a six-star probably

Sounds like a stormy night rescued just in time. The costumes would have been huge hits. Too bad this is only fiction. It would definitely be a night to remember. :)

    Thank you Phyllis for your kind words, lol, many many years ago I dressed as a gnome and low and behold during my trick or treating I found another girl as a gnome, different coloring etc but a gnome.

Thanks for sharing this creative writing about a slumber party where all the girls were dressed like garden gnomes. Maybe someday you'll be able to dress up like a gnome??

A Halloween fun-time write.... and I'm the opposite of the brothers: given a group of thirteen teenage girls in my house, I would run as far away as I could get - I teach those kiddos, it would be a crazifest!! LOL! ;) A fun offering, Alie -- thanx so much for sharing your imagination!! ;) Yvette

Actually yes I have seen many folk dressed alike, when the Royal Marines were on parade! But they were not trick or treating.

'survive the gale like winds' -- should be hyphenated as gale-like.

a neat little piece.
